It's baseline is basically WW gain 6 on an installment plan between lifelink and two blocks on bears. It's kind of a life gain card that in dire straits can attack or once in a while ride a synergy wave from zombies or one of the thirty power boosters in BWR. How good that is to be determined.

The key is "while it's on the battlefield ". If it's dead when the trigger resolves it's not on the battlefield so the target never exiles.

Also you can shortcut it in a way you can't in a tournament. Just sort your three on the next player's turn and then if anything relevant happens to make you need something else do it again. Then you aren't doing it right before your turn and holding everyone up.

Steve blames VSL and its mutant vintage meta game for the restriction that knocked out shops. I have no personal clue on accuracy of that.

Most PTs they give slots away. They've been doing this for ages.

I figure it has 0 effect on any magic player not at the PT. If it wasn't given as a promo that slot would likely just not exist. At the PR it may jack up the day 1 draft pod a bit and give people playing them a near bye. It's pretty low down the Things To Get Mad At WOTC For.

The bigger question is why is this a big deal suddenly. It goes back to at least 2013 if not earlier.

It really only became an issue with special inserts. A foil valuable plus a regular valuable could happen but it would never get close to the value of Force+potential pricy foil or something.

Even poo poo sets have something like serrated arrows. Also I hope Dominaria involves the chunk that is phased out returning. One minute phyrexian invasion the next OH GOD gently caress SLIVERS. Then in 2019 Phyrexia invades again.

There has been a big uptick in cards referencing specific walkers even ignoring introduction deck cards.

They weren't loving around when they said they heard the feedback on too much gatewatch and that they were dealing with it. Neat that it seems both mechanical and in flavor terms! And Magic is pretty good on avoiding comic book revives. Bolas and Ugin are the only real hokey ones. To be fair we didn't actually know Ugin was dead until about the same point we knew he was getting revived. Bolas was at least in a block involving horrifying holes in space time that dragged tons of stuff through.

Elspeth won't be hokey because returning from the Underworld was an established thing in both Greek and Theros myth. I still hope Dack does it.

I'm guessing all three nuked gods will have his return to hand at end of turn if it died as their equivalent to god indestructible.

Dominaria no longer has time holes destroying the fabric of reality but is still a hellscape dominated by slivers short of a serious retcon.

After the split second spell resolves each player gets priority again. It doesn't say nothing can be added to the stack until everything resolves.

There are definitely Phyrexian zombies. Old and new Phyrexia. Not sure on corrupting ones that are already dead. There were coalition zombies in Invasion. But I don't know if it was strictly because there were lots of corpses available.

In retrospect making a possible army of walkers is cool but really hard to get the logistics to work. When you spark you end up who knows where but not at home and maybe having a change of heart about your god pharaoh

Yeah the PT deck choosing can get into fun increasingly complicated logic loops. Is this the best deck? Does every team find this? Did we break the format? Is everyone else tossing their percentages vs other decks to beat our deck because they think everyone will play it?

It just doesn't need to be 100% live. Tape delay it and use the known info to make a digital game board that looks like Duels. Cards in hand, and graveyard and poo poo if relevant.

I think the number one thing they can do is say at x date no set redemptions. Then do huge price changes and push the word that it now is way cheaper going forward.

Tainen posted:Wait, don't you just loot one card no matter how many creatures deal combat damage with Jace's +1? I don't understand how double strike gets you multiple loots. You can loot once per damage phase no matter how many creatures hit. So first strike and regular. If you get more combat phases you can loot two more each! E: also you can avoid lovely double strikers by mixing first strikers and regular creatures. Not that I know if we have non-poo poo first strikers.

Dino fossils and stuff around it is still pretty up in the air. There is a strong argument that we have less identified species than we think and a lot of "species" are juveniles of other species.
